    Windows 7 - Printers missing/Restart Print Spooler

    I don't know the setup of your netowrk, but I notice you started at least one thread in Windows Server 2003, so I'm assuming that's what your network printers are attached to / shared from. There was a known issue with Windows XP and Win2003 similar to this that you should know about...

    VPN for free -- and decent recommendations?

    So just as one example, from the terms of service in Hotspotshield, which is a perfectly fine company for all uses that are not mission critical: "14.2 "As is" and "As available" and "With All Faults". YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT USE OF THE SERVICE AND HOTSPOT SHIELD SOFTWARE IS AT YOUR SOLE...

    VPN for free -- and decent recommendations?

    Online banking has to be safe, therefore it's mission critical. Mission critical means that you do have recourse if something goes wrong. You have support, you have somebody to turn to and who takes responsiblity if things go wrong. Freeware VPN software makers aren't going to go to bat for...

    Cisco 2811 static nat setup

    I guess the hardest thing about not knowing what you're doing is that you're likely to confuse those who might be able to help you with an oddly worded question. I've been trying to figure out why you would need the load balancer at this stage of the game if you have possibly four WAN interface...

    Help needed with understanding offline files

    Theoretically, Windows 7 should sync in the background regularly with the "server" but this offline files location is not on a server, so I'm not sure if that's affecting the behavior. In any case, it can't hurt to check the group policy value mentioned on this page...

    Setting up printer problems

    Good ideas, BadBigBen, I would also add, the ideas of: jetdirect and print server for USB depending on what exactly the needs of the printer are Unless the printer was already "ethernet ready" (builtin print server) in which case I'd just hook it up to the router and be done with it. Too bad...

    Rollback IE8

    The best advice I can offer you, and this is straight from the heart, is: please relax and try not to view Microsoft as the enemy. Complaining about them is so habitual that it can stand in the way of learning something new. Fact: you have a new PC and you have to learn it Fact: it will...

    VPN for free -- and decent recommendations?

    Windows 7 Professional is meant to be used with Windows Server 2008's VPN in a corporate setting. So I'm confused why you're asking for an additional solution. If this is a small business, then it's worth it to get the Server license(s) you need. And really it's not much more complicated to...

    Where has the RAM dissappeared to?

    I think what you want to look at is the column called "Memory - Commit Size" http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-do-the-Task-Manager-memory-columns-mean What happens if you add up that column? Do you find the missing memory?

    Folder Views

    Good catch! This is where Windows 7 confuses people and hopefully I can shed a little light on it for you. After you click Start / Documents, do you see in that window, on the left side a list that looks like an outline with headings like Favorites, Libraries, Homegroup, Computers, Network and...

    What does this Event Log entry mean in English?

    That was hillarious flyboytim! Squaguy, you could also try disabling Netbios or try the "use the DHCP server's settings" setting for NetBIOS. Right click the icon in taskbar, select Open Network and Sharing Center" then select "Change Adapter Settings" and right click the connection you're...

    Folder Views

    There is no more filmstrip view in Windows 7. The closest thing is Extra Large Icon view which is acccessible from the buttons on the upper right hand side of the folder window. You can also turn off the preview view from the button right next to view button. If you want most of your folders...

    coverting the office to mac...

    I've been away from tek-tips for a while. And I don't remember anyone using phrases like "this thread is a vacuum of intelligence" before. Please keep the discussion professional. Allow me to explain why Adobe is better on Mac for graphics design. This is partly social and partly a matter...

    coverting the office to mac...

    I've supported both PC and Mac and like them both for different reasons. Your decision should be based on what you do in the office most. If it's Adobe-based software for graphics design, then you would probably enjoy the switch a lot. But if you work in a bank and need to run Citrix terminal...

    iPhone/Blackberry Video Compatibility

    I can't answer your question from personal experience, but I bet the people who made this product can: http://www.pocketmac.com/ Look for "Pocketmac for Blackberry." I think it's overkill for what you're asking, but the company did put a lot of work into what they're doing, so if anybody...
